According to an order by 40 million motorists, "83%" of the French believe that entrusting the management of 260 radars on board unmarked vehicles to private providers, would be "a bad thing". The association protests against this new "rentier" security measure via a .
Smile, you are ruined !
According to conducted by Harris Interactive with a sample of "1002 people representative of French people aged 18 and over", this transfer of the road safety mission from law enforcement to private companies, announced by Prime Minister Manuel Valls during and acted by the government the stride, would be above all a financial step for "76%" of the polled.
No less than "70%" of those questioned believe – quite logically – that this measure "will not improve road safety". On the other hand, the profits of the companies in question, they will quickly skyrocket. !
“And why not directly privatize the gendarmerie while we’re at it!” Protested Pierre Chasseray. "With this system it will no longer be" smile, you flashed "but" smile, you are ruined ", assures the general delegate of 40 million motorists, who launches against this measure, to say the least surprising – and questionable – on the part of a left government !
Asked about the borderline legality of this operation to replace police officers or gendarmes by providers without training and even less swearing in, the interministerial delegate for road safety Emmanuel Barbe wanted to put things right , demonstrating as usual a perfect mastery of the wooden tongue and the drowning of fish…

"Today, two police officers or two qualified gendarmes are employed in a mission which does not require their skills at all, since one drives the vehicle and the other indicates to the computer system the maximum authorized speed at the place where the driver is located. vehicle ", develops the official argument.
As usual, the government ignores a fact that is nevertheless fundamental: who decides to hide these two agents in order to issue fines to whom better – thanks to radars, including the latest generation, located in place of the plate registration, is almost invisible ?
